I think it does not fail, it just takes too long. In case sync-engine is
doing some stuff on the phone, other calls that depend on the
process_config rapi-call might block. For example, when you are
uninstalling a program, which is done through a process_config, retrieving
a list of installed programs or any other call that makes use of
process_config seems to block.
I have seen some minor issues with this also when I rewrote synce-kpm to
use dbus. I solved it by adding a larger timeout while calling the
function (which in python is done via adding a timeout=xxx parameter to
the original dbus-call)
